I have candy, and you don't. This is a natural hierarchy we find in nature. If you wanted candy bad enough, you would have it. You don't deserve candy because you don't already have candy. Therefore I will eat the candy in front of you, perhaps to bolster your will to achieve your own candy some day. Yes I will eat the entire bag.

He's tenured iirc, and thus almost impossible to get rid of.

maybe for one second you can pause; try to step into another person's perspective, and understand that a watermelon is cursing me



From memory he's not tenured, he just isn't like a core teacher so he can't be fired so much as just not asked to host classes.

He's got to be tenured; U of T loves their celebrity profs. I've always assumed that's why David Begun wasn't fired after being reported for loving his grad students. Instead they just canceled field schools for anthro students for a couple years.

He's been on sabbatical for the last few years, but supposedly he's very unwelcome on campus and there's no support for him anymore among staff. Between him having tenure and not actually teaching or being on campus in person, it's probably easier to just keep him shoved to the side until/unless he decides he wants to teach again. Then the school might have to make a decision

So this is how I ended up in a Vic One seminar taught by a literal crazy man who I once saw at Shopper's Drug mart wearing two hats and loudly contemplating the purchase of a bus to himself. What a world.

It was a seminar for first years at Vic, allegedly an honors thing but probably just a way for profs to meet class hour minimums or something. I think it was called The Canadian Experience or something weird like that. We learned random things about Toronto, which would have been great had it not come with a massive book list that cost the earth and which we never used once.

The story I heard was that the professors union told U of T we don't want this guy teaching here and if he comes back we'll raise a big stink and the administration said 'yeah, no problem we're on the same page'
